Habit AI vs Streaks: Which iPhone Habit Tracker Fits You
An honest comparison of Habit AI and Streaks for iPhone: task limits, Apple ecosystem coverage, streak rules, and where each app is the better choice.
The short answer
Streaks is the better pick if you live across Apple devices and want a mature, extremely polished tracker with Apple Watch, iPad, Mac, and Vision Pro versions. Habit AI is the better pick if broken streaks are what made you quit before, if you want the coaching to run on-device rather than in a cloud service, or if you want body measurements and supplements tracked in the same app as your habits.

Where Streaks is the better choice
- Runs on iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro. Habit AI is iPhone-only today, with Android in development.
- A long track record and a large, settled user base, which matters if you want an app that is unlikely to change under you.
Where Habit AI is the better choice
- Partial credit keeps a streak alive on a day you fell short of the target, instead of resetting it to zero.
- The AI coach runs on-device with Apple Intelligence, so habit data is not sent to a cloud model for analysis.
- Four logging types (yes/no, quantity, timer, and a 1 to 5 scale) rather than treating every habit as a completion.
- Body measurements and supplement tracking live alongside habits instead of needing separate apps.
- No task cap: Streaks limits you to 24 tasks.
